(The pathophysiology of the insulin deficiency and the switch in hepatic metabolism is discussed in more detail in DKA section below.) Administration of large volumes of normal saline in resuscitation of patients with acute DKA promotes continued diuresis (and continued loss of ketone bodies with Na + as the cation) and provides plenty of chloride to replace the lost ketoanions.
